I was interested in manipulating sexual energy and transform it into a higher spiritual power. So I tried getting myself in a state where I can feel the sexual "temptation" without feeling the actual lust. So that I can become more "aware" of the libido(which I heard somewhere is jing energy).
Now as I said, I become aware of the libido "trying" to act. But unless I loose control, it wouldn't become lust and just stays somewhere at the base of my spine. Next I try to get it to act the other way and sponge it up through my spine instead. Which is a little difficult to explain but feels pretty cool.
It feels a lot like confidence to me. Confidence that reaches deep into my soul. A kind of feeling that helps me understand that I am more than just my physical body or something. As I said, it's difficult to understand. IT also makes me feel more awake and aware too.
So does this sound like I'm doing right? I mean, I'll also practice other cultivation techniques if there are better ones. But I just want to know if I've been going okay until now. I've been practicing with this along with meditation to generate a stronger chi for a while. And I must say they work well hand in hand. But I'm just asking really ^^.
